Hi Gorantec

Watch out for the positions of the cross-supports relative to the long beams. They should not be symmetrical like in your pictures. Have a careful look at drawing 1010300W:


(I have added the approx 209 and 409 dimensions for the sketch above - there is 200mm difference from one side to the other)

gorantec Thu 18 June 2009 01:17

Gerald ,

what problem can i get if i go like is now in the pictures ?

Thanks
Goran

Your router will not cover the full distance as shown below:


That dimension should be approx the "X" dimension you use for calculating the rail lengths, etc.

If that dimension is equal to your longest board/sheet, you will not be able to cut it all the way to the ends.

gorantec Fri 19 June 2009 01:16

the "X" rail in the picture is 2700 mm but my cutting area i like to be 2100 mm i think theat this calculation is correct ?

Gerald D Fri 19 June 2009 03:42

If you are only planning to cut 2100, then your table is okay. In fact, it looks nice and strong. Sorry that I made you a bit nervous about the length.

i have stuck with driver from Deitech motors get enable but i can not move ? Whant can be problem ? Also since my power suply is not here yet im using power suply for test 32V and have around 9-10A can be theat problem which motors get enable but dont move ?

Gerald D Sat 20 June 2009 05:07

Can you give us lots of photos of your test setup/wiring for the motors?

Are you using Mach3 and PMDX-122? Something else?

javeria Sat 20 June 2009 07:48

have you drawn out a circuit which you an share with us? I really interested in this drivers.

Gorantec,
Is this a board that you built yourself, or was it premade and tested?

Gorantec,
Good luck, I take it your diy board is working fine now. :)

Gerald D Sun 09 August 2009 20:44

I look forward to lots of pictures! :)

We going to Croatia on holiday next year, but I am starting to think that Macedonia will be better!

I will suggest following links for you:

gorantec Tue 11 August 2009 00:47

Gerald you will not make mistake if you come to Macedonia :cool:

ok now i like some help my motors need power suply of min 32 Amps but i found power suply with more then 50 Amps and 58 V but i can not find some capacitors for theat suply what will happen if i put without capacitors ?

And also please let me know since my drivers are go to 256 micro steps what will be the best micro step ?

Gerald D Tue 11 August 2009 02:29

I think you make some typing mistakes 32 Amps? 50 Amps? That is far too much!

You must have the capacitors. If you cannot find new ones, then you will have to find old ones from scrapped electronics somewhere.

256 microsteps means that your computer must give very high frequency signals. A normal computer cannot go that fast. We mostly work with 10 microsteps.

gorantec Tue 11 August 2009 14:47

well the my motors are all rated 8Amps in bipolar parallel conection but i have put some power suply witch give 32V and 10A total with 30000 mF capacitors and the machine work perfect :D

My machine make first cut and was perfect at first time :D i will post pictures and video in couple hours

Gorantec,

Congratulations. Great work.:)

Okay now, just some logo's and you are ready for a Serial Number.:D

Gerald D Tue 11 August 2009 20:36

Very well done Gorantec!

How many other CNC routers are in Bitola? I am sure that you will get nice work for your new machine.

Kobus_Joubert Tue 11 August 2009 22:29

Well done . Let the real fun begin...enjoy

javeria Wed 12 August 2009 06:17
